figma

Installation
Summary

Fetch design context, screenshots, and assets from Figma, then translate designs into production code.

  • Provides three core commands: get_design_context for structured node representation, get_screenshot for visual reference, and asset download via localhost endpoints
  • Requires a mandatory workflow: fetch design context, retrieve screenshot, download assets, then implement using project conventions and design tokens
  • Outputs React + Tailwind as a design representation; implementation must reuse existing project components, color systems, and typography instead of duplicating Figma output verbatim
  • Link-based operation: extract node IDs from Figma URLs to fetch specific frames, layers, or variants; validate final UI against Figma for 1:1 visual and behavioral parity

Figma MCP

Use the Figma MCP server for Figma-driven implementation. For setup and debugging details (env vars, config, verification), see references/figma-mcp-config.md.

Figma MCP Integration Rules

These rules define how to translate Figma inputs into code for this project and must be followed for every Figma-driven change.

Required flow (do not skip)

  1. Run get_design_context first to fetch the structured representation for the exact node(s).
  2. If the response is too large or truncated, run get_metadata to get the high-level node map and then re-fetch only the required node(s) with get_design_context.
  3. Run get_screenshot for a visual reference of the node variant being implemented.
  4. Only after you have both get_design_context and get_screenshot, download any assets needed and start implementation.
  5. Translate the output (usually React + Tailwind) into this project's conventions, styles and framework. Reuse the project's color tokens, components, and typography wherever possible.
  6. Validate against Figma for 1:1 look and behavior before marking complete.

Implementation rules

  • Treat the Figma MCP output (React + Tailwind) as a representation of design and behavior, not as final code style.
  • Replace Tailwind utility classes with the project's preferred utilities/design-system tokens when applicable.
  • Reuse existing components (e.g., buttons, inputs, typography, icon wrappers) instead of duplicating functionality.
